Ron Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 http://www.newstimes.com/entertainment/art...7608.php#page-2 When I stop giving a s--t, you're not going to talk to me anymore. If you don't give a s--t, get out. I used to be able to give sound advice on the music industry, but I don't know s--t and neither does anyone else anymore. I just watched the Grammys and the (president) practically begged people to buy music and not steal it. I remember the rock press used to say when the Internet came out what a revolution this was going to be for the music industry. You know what I thought? That's what you think. Even if record companies charge $5, free is less. With the Internet, you know what you get? The biggest Chinese menu you ever saw and no one can decide which egg roll to get. You can't give people too many choices. I'll get off my soapbox now. The Ridgefield Playhouse is at 80 East Ridge, Ridgefield. Thursday 8 p.m. $85. 203-438-5795, www.ridgefieldplayhouse.org.

ladybugking Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 It's rather apparent what Dennis thinks of state of the music industry today. #-o He has said pretty much the same thing in other interviews, but not with the same, uh, emphasis as here.

Rubulator2k Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 lol.. one of the reaons I love to hear what Dennis has to say is he speaks like my dad did... lots of metaphores and analogies... the chinese menu description is just perfect for the internet... lol Although I do get the feeling from different interviews, he does not care for the "internet medium" in general. Some of his displeasure comes from the piracy and explotatation of what from his standpoint is itellectual property of the artist... He would be more of an expert on that knowing the process for his craft front to back... I also think hes sees things written by what he percieves as a relativly small audience/group of people... people who are not professional journalists or experts, but just folks, and doesn't care for the ananimity of it all...

Pamela Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 Guess that makes me a fanatical diehard, then. Hah! Lost Treasures is BY FAR my favorite Dennis set than any of the others mentioned have been. Never been a huge fan of the "hits" It's the album tracks of his that have always stood out most to me. Even on 100 years from now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
